scope:
Specifies a method for determining the ability of full-section metallic tubes of circular cross section to undergo plastic deformation in bending. It is intended for tubes with an outside diameter not greater than 65 mm although the range of the outside diameter for which this European Standard is applicable can be more exactly specified in the relevant product standard. Bend tests of the test pieces taken from tubes in the form of transverse strips should be made in accordance with ISO 7438:1985 so that the original curvature of the test piece is increased.
